I suppressed the weirdness in the shelter

Chapter 187: Hasty Arrest

"Come and ask this section of iron railing what it smells like."

"Rust?"

"To be precise, it's the smell of blood."

"The taste of blood? This... Sir, this is a bit far-fetched."

"The Requiem Cemetery is the most important cemetery in Shenhui City. The maintenance work is very good, but there is a strong smell of rust here. It should have been left there last night."

"Sir, can you smell that?"

"of course."

I can't smell it.

How else can I explain this? Could it be that I, a serious civil servant of the kingdom, am actually an apostle of "pleasure", and found the traces of the pagans by relying on the magic of "pleasure"?

It's so funny. Even if I were crazy I couldn't say such a thing.

Don't ask. If you ask, I'll tell you that he comes from the military and has seen more blood than water in his entire life.

Wyatt's words made the two men doubtful, but Wyatt had no choice but to lead them out of the cemetery, and then follow the traces found by the "pleasure" magic, tracking them bit by bit.

Of the above lies, only the fact that a pagan came last night is true.

Under normal circumstances, the remnants of emotion would not be so obvious. If we judge by the ability of the apostles, then we can be sure that a pagan came to the Requiem Cemetery last night.

It is not difficult to follow the clues, but the difficult part is how to use reasonable words to explain the means by which you discovered the clues.

Fortunately, Wyatt was good at talking nonsense, and because of his position and experience, York and Silver did not delve into the matter deeply, and were therefore fooled.

To be honest, Wyatt was a little curious whether the assessment standards for first-level investigators in the Extraordinary Investigation Bureau had been lowered in recent years.

You have to know that I failed the list of the Extraordinary Investigation Bureau, so I went to join the military.

However, judging from the current results, I should be grateful for the lowered difficulty of the assessment standards.

Following the remaining emotions, Wyatt led the two of them to a busy street.

Looking at the tavern on the corner, Wyatt stopped.

The ecstasy mixed with greed accumulated here and could not dissipate for a long time. If the pagan had not stopped here, such a strong emotional residue would definitely not be left behind.

In Wyatt's view, the tavern was wrapped in a huge pink oil bubble.

Seeing this, Wyatt couldn't help but be a little surprised.

There were more pagans than he had imagined.

This is just one stronghold that the kingdom has targeted. I really don’t know how many similar strongholds there are in Shenhui City.

Wyatt naturally changed his direction and entered a bakery nearby.

This is a famous bakery in Shenhui City. It is said that it will soon be chained to the kingdom, and it seems to be a subsidiary of the Luvia Chamber of Commerce.

It's a rare opportunity for me to come out, so I might as well bring some back for Helen to try.

Of course, Wyatt didn't buy bread on a whim; he just discovered that there were quite a few spies in that tavern.

His presence here was enough to alert them. If he entered the tavern again at this moment, he would probably find the tavern empty when they came to arrest him.

While waiting, Wyatt took the two of them aside and pretended to be chatting with them to introduce the details of the situation.

"You said the pagans were lurking in that tavern?!"

Although York was surprised, he knew that it was not appropriate to show it too obviously, so he lowered his voice consciously.

"Sir, although your analysis along the way is very reasonable, this is the Theocracy, and we need evidence to arrest you."

"The evidence will be there, don't worry, you just need to organize a capture team as soon as possible." "But..."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will take care of the matter with the church. I am the superior and I will bear the responsibility. What are you afraid of?"

"But there are only a limited number of investigators entering the Church this time. If we ask other colleagues to put down their work and come to assist in the arrest, we will need..."

"All necessary documents will be included. If you are still short of manpower, do you want to transfer some paladins to help you?"

"Thank you for your support, sir!"

Wyatt smiled with satisfaction, then took the paper bag of bread from the clerk, announced the dismissal, and left on his own.

…………

Everything Wyatt promised was quickly arranged, and it only took one day in total.

He got the arrest warrant, the transfer documents, and the church's permission.

The only thing he didn't provide was the evidence. But at this point, York and Sifer believed that Wyatt had already prepared the evidence, but it was just not convenient to show it.

It's a pity that the two subordinates think so, but those investigators who are not under Wyatt's management don't think so.

"York, are you sure the order and the document are not forged."

"Watch your words!"

"Why are you so angry? That airborne commander has only been here for one day and he has already conquered you? Did he secretly give you some activity funds? We are all family. Tell me how much he gave you."

"This is a serious arrest operation, so be serious! If we miss a pagan, none of us will be able to report to the authorities."

"Yes, yes, yes, good, good, a serious arrest operation."

The assisting colleague exaggeratedly imitated York's words and actions, which caused others to laugh.

During the covert period before the arrest, this behavior is absolutely forbidden, and if discovered by superiors, it is enough to result in dismissal.

If York wasn't sitting with them at a table outside a coffee shop on the corner, disguised as a group of ordinary passers-by out shopping, they would have been exposed by now.

York had a headache, and to be honest, he was a little shaken at the moment.

Last night he carefully savored Wyatt's analysis, and always felt that something was wrong. The rhetoric seemed to be made up on the spot, but the logic was self-consistent and he could not find any specific problems.

Now being ridiculed like this, he was even more shaken.

After his colleagues had laughed enough, they saw that York looked worried and felt deeply sympathetic towards his situation.

Among this class of first-level investigators, many of them took the exam for the Extraordinary Investigation Bureau at the same time as Wyatt. They always have a sense of superiority towards this loser.

It must be admitted that he is now a big shot, but when it comes to dealing with heretics in the city, he is definitely not as good as himself as a first-level investigator.

It's just like you can't ask a brave and skilled special forces soldier to enforce the law instead of the police.

The man who took the lead in mocking York did not forget that he was here to do serious business. Although this serious business was like a child's play, it was an order from the superiors after all. Even if he had to deal with it, he had to deal with it beautifully and in accordance with the procedures.

He took out a pocket watch, which was a portable camouflaged pollution detector. According to the Bureau's arrest procedures, the surrounding environment had to be checked for pollution every ten minutes before the operation to confirm safety.

The previous detection results showed no abnormalities, so he felt that there would be no abnormalities this time.

If there is a pollution reaction in Shenhui City, then the Paladins should be the ones to come.

The colleague glanced at his pocket watch casually, and a look of fear gradually appeared in his eyes.

"what's the situation?!"

There really is pollution!
